emergency generator
Heaters or heat lamps must be installed to the engine and radiator.
Radiator water must be drained and filled with antifreeze. If this is not on board, then the engine must be run at a reduced governor speed to keep the engine ticking continuously. Under these conditions, it may be necessary to remove the fan belt if the engine is running too cold. It may also be necessary to close the air intake vents that allow air to circulate in the generator room. You will need to remove the ductwork around the vent and seal the vent with plywood.
The gas oil storage tank must be checked for water as moisture will cause the gas oil to freeze.
Where possible, low temperature diesel fuel should be obtained. If there is no one on board, the company must be notified of arrival.
in advance and 100 liters will be ordered for delivery (work at sea 2 mechanics)
If necessary, this can be ordered locally through an agent.
If antifreeze is not available on board, it must be ordered directly through he agents for delivery upon arrival. The radiator must be filled immediately and the engine test run.
The air supply line should be disconnected from the air start motor and drain any moisture before reconnecting to drain the water from the airline. This should be done every hour to ensure there is no water or moisture in the airline.
Sea water ballast main/fire main on deck
This line must be completely cleared of water or, if for any reason the line pressure must be maintained, the exposed hoses must be connected to the front and highest hydrants in the system with the pump running continuously. The seawater pump must operate from sea to sea and a constant flow must be maintained in all lines.
main engine (work at sea 2 mechanics)
The main engine must remain hot, and generator cooling water must flow through the main engine to maintain temperature.
Engine room temperature
Engine temperatures should be kept high and cooling fans should be reversed or turned off. Air ducts must be closed.
Electric motor
All electric motors should have heat lamps or heaters turned on or run continuously if possible and practicable.
Marine pumps
All marine suction boxes should be steamed regularly if at any time ice levels are suspected.
High suction should not be used except in emergency situations or when it is considered likely that dirt, sludge, slurry or debris may be drawn into the filter boxes. Low suction should be used where possible.
Hydraulic Equipment (work at sea 2 mechanics)
All equipment must be operated regularly and tank heaters must be turned on. All seawater cooling systems must be cleared of water and purged with air. Machines must remain running at all times.
The lifeboat engine must be running every watch and the system must be checked for water. Fuel tanks and lines must be checked for freezing. If necessary, heating lamps should be installed inside the boat.
